Neon Flash Spirea, spiraea japonica 'Neon Flash', is a
3 foot by 3 foot compact plant that is a fast grower
with "flashy" bright red flower clusters blooming
throughout the summer season. The dark green summer
foliage emerges with a purplish tinge, and then in fall
becomes a dark burgundy. Spireas are among the easiest
flowering shrubs to grow since they are tolerant of
many soils except extremely wet. The plant also likes
mulch and summer watering, along with full sun. Neon
Flash has a dense mounding habit that is tidy and
versatile, with high tolerance for snow damage.
Incredible color in both foliage and flowers, this
spirea deserves a place in any garden. |
